Five-Layer Passive Safety Buffer for Lithium-Ion Battery Thermal Runaway

When a lithium-ion battery cell fails, it enters thermal runaway — a self-reinforcing reaction that generates extreme heat, toxic and flammable gases, and electrical fault propagation simultaneously. Existing inter-cell protection products address only one of these three hazards: ceramic spacers and mica sheets slow heat conduction, and aerogel pads provide thermal insulation.

Reduce CO2 Emissions by 70-100% , Methane Emissions by 50%

The disclosed integrated framework presents a system-level approach to climate engineering, aiming to reduce global anthropogenic methane emissions by more than 50% and achieve significant net CO_2 drawdown. The core thesis is that climate interventions should be structured as profit-generating enterprises rather than cost centers,

Parking Lot Design

We don't build new cities. We upgrade the infrastructure cities already have. The next energy transition will not happen on empty land -- it will happen where people already park every day. We're transforming the world's largest unused energy infrastructure -- parking lots.

The image demonstrates how conventional parking infrastructure can evolve into attractive, human-centered public spaces.

Integrated Pressurized Cooling Architecture for Power Electronic Components

This invention redefines the passive power inductor as an actively cooled structural component by integrating a pressurized automatic transmission fluid (ATF) manifold directly into its molded bobbin. The architecture eliminates the limitations of conventional splash cooling while improving thermal performance without requiring a separate cooling system, additional packaging space, or significant manufacturing complexity.

360 Degree Solar Panel for Cars

This idea allows the solar panel to receive the sun's rays in any direction of the car, as the panel itself has a 360-degree circumferential shape horizontally and a cone shape vertically. This ensures high performance of capturing sunlight. The stationary panel requires adjustment based on the movement of the sun.

STV™ Platform for Hydrogen-Ready Advanced Combustion and Modular Propulsion

The complexity, cost, and material temperature limits of turbine hot-section hardware constrain modern aircraft propulsion. The Short-Stroke Valve (STV™) platform proposes a different architecture from conventional turbine engines. Modular high-boost internal-combustion units generate high-temperature, high-pressure gas that expands directly through a propulsive nozzle to produce thrust. By bypassing high-temperature turbine conversion,

Heart Combustion Engine

Heart Combustion Engine is a new internal combustion engine architecture designed to improve efficiency, specific power, and fuel flexibility while remaining compatible with conventional piston engine manufacturing.

The invention is based on a patented kinematic mechanism that allows a complete four-stroke cycle to be performed in one crankshaft revolution instead of the conventional two revolutions.

Solar Hydrogen and Chemicals Production from Plastics Using Recycled Battery Acid

Plastic waste represents one of the world's largest and most challenging waste stream. Currently, less than 18% of plastic waste is recycled efficienctly with majority of the problems arising from mixed waste and contaminants. Spent lead-acid batteries on the other hand is an underused resource that usually gets neutralised into salts or diluted and discarded.
